Since Adirondack Retro acquired Darvill's Rare Prints in August of 2022, we have been working tirelessly on our New State-Of-The Art Website. We are excited to announce that it is now up and running and that our massive inventory of Antique Prints and Rare Maps are being transferred over to the new site daily. In addition to the nearly 500,000 prints found on www.DarvillsRarePrints.com, Adirondack Retro offers an eclectic selection of Antique and Vintage Advertisements along with their Limited Edition Giclee Prints.

Orme's Collection of British Field Sports Illustrated

Exact facsimiles of the first and only edition of one of the rarest of all sporting books,
printed in eight colours by offset lithography by W. S. Cowell, Ltd., Butter Market, Ipswich, Suffolk, England and published by Charles W. Traylen, Antiquarian Bookseller in 1955-1957.

The sheet size of these beautiful prints is 21 3/4 inches wide by 17 1/2 inches high.
(Image area varies, but approximately 16 3/4 x 11 3/4 inches.)
Printed on heavy, light cream-colored stock.
Most plates have slight corner bumping (lower left corner usually) not affecting the image area.

The quality of the 8-colour lithography is stunning! From designs by Samuel Howitt.
